| You can do it through SQL Server Configuration Manager and regedit. I prefer regedit.The registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\Client\ConnectToThe registry entry's name will be the alias name. Then you'd specify how to connect in the data value.Here's an example:String name: SomeAliasNameData value: DBMSSOCN,SomeServerName,PortNumberDBMSSOCN tells it to use the TCP dll.Tara KizerSQL Server MVP since 2007http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/tarad/ |
